So all the pubbies who voted to defund ACORN also voted to nationalize student loans (with the government service provision, no doubt)?

If true, it is regular Dhimmi sneakiness at work.

Soros will take care of the Acorn funding problem; no worries for them re fed fund cutoff.

[Scanian]

If ACORN-like groups are so important to the socialist cause, let rich creeps like Soros pay for them. They do his dirty work for him and he can well afford it.

Then we need a special prosecutor to investigate Holder for obstruction of justice. With enough public pressure, he can be by-passed.

Republicans, long critics of the liberal-leaning group that advocates for the poor.... - Geezers, I hate reporting like this. It's like reporting on people who cash phony checks: 'Bankers, long critics of the free spirited group, many of whom are poor or minorities..'.

Well that looks like it includes the entire Black Caucus. Nothing racist to see here.

[hoosiermama]

Do you happen to have a list of the AA caucus, so we can compare the two lists.

[Scanian]

No one here can feel bad about it. We almost unanimously pushed our congresscreeps to oppose porkulus and the bailouts.

I checked against this.

Too bad we can get public this revved up about all important issues. It’s a shame that it seems to take sensationalism to get the folks to apply the kind of pressure that it must have taken to de-fund those scumbags.

Castor (FL)

She's nice and local to me, I'd call her office but I don't think I could restrain my anger. Her district is as safe as it gets though, so she can get away with anything, even supporting child sex slavery. The perverts in downtown Tampa will continue to vote her in.

[Parley Baer]

I agree they will re-emerge under a new name and it will be business as usual.

Where was Pelosi? Why didn’t she vote?

She was too busy playing Ostrich with Charlie./sarc

The AP is a sorry, liberal source. I feel almost apologetic for posting their stuff. I did it only because they were the first source I could find with info on the House vote.

My congressman, Nick Joe Rahall (D-West Virginia, 3rd District), was one of the 75 clowns who voted to keep funding ACORN. What a crock! Any Freepers from this district? Nick Joe has been in office for some 30 years. It’s time for Nick Joe to go!!!!!

I predicted this back a few months in a Post....ACORN being infiltrated.

I think the FBI has some Explaining to do, along with the State Attorney Generals, The MSM, etc......
Where the Hell you guys been ?

[TRY ONE]

“All 75 no votes were Democrats.”

Since Jimma Karter says it's all about race, just wondering about the racial breakdown of the 75?!?!?!?!?!

[1035rep]

Wow! I’m impressed.

[MplsSteve]

From first glances, almost all of the NO votes came from reps who are in very liberal or heavy minority districts.

Unfortunately, their vote (to keep ACORN’s funding)won’t hurt ‘em a bit.

[hoosiermama]

That's what I suspected. Just wanted to see if anyone else was thinking in the same furrow.
